I need help reducing the image size...PSE8

I have some photos that I won't be enlarging/editing (just want to keep them in catalog) that are large MB size files. I want to reduce the size of these photos and still see them large on the screen. Can anyone tell me what resolution I should enter to do that?
For example what ratio would I enter for this photo:
I have a photo that is 3.55 MB (JPG), PSE8 says my file is 55.556 inches x 41.667 inches at 72 dpi.
When I open the resize Image option it says my pixel dimensions are 34.3M showing the width at 4000 and the Height at 3000
This photo is one that I don't plan to edit - I just want to keep in my catalog at a smaller size for screen viewing. When I have tried to reduce the size it shows up small on the screen (at 100%).Or chosing smaller inches still keeps the file in large MB size.
Why is it you can send an email in KB sizes that show up full screen but I can't get this reduced and it show up even be that big when it still says MB size?
I hope this makes sense, I am new to PSE8 and not sure if I explained this well enough.
I appreciate any help!,
Thank you,
Angela

At the bottom of the screen, turn on Resample Image. Then enter a size in pixels for the longer of the two sides (figure this based on your monitor's pixel dimensions).
I wouldn't do this to an original unless you have a copy elsewhere.

Do I need to reduce the images size in pixels before upload them to M.Me?

Do I need to reduce the images size in pixels (actual size jpeg 5616 × 3744 pixels/766kb) before upload them from iPhoto to a Mobile Me Gallery?
Otherwise they will be heavy or the upload process take care of that?
It would be nice that iPhoto took care and optimize the images to display online without any more work, because I´ve 1200 images to upload and they´re jpegs 5616 × 3744 pixels. It´s just to viewing purposes. Not o download or print.
Thanks.

In fact no matter if I use a High or Medium compression size JPEG, the size after upload is the same.
Starts with 1,5 MB/5600px (high) or 780kb/5600px (medium) JPEG and ends after upload in 115kb for a 1024px image.
This means that iPhoto auto compress in order to publish to Mobile Me, even if we start with a bigger file.
I hope this info is useful to others.
Thanks.

Need to reduce the page size, not the file size (shrink the page to allow for binding)

Print to Adobe PDF printer.
Define a page size in the Properties of the PDF Printer
Print from Acrobat to PDF Printer with scaling in effect.

Email-to facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL, I reduce the file size. Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression?

To facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL and avoid overwhelming the recipient's screen, I reduce the file size. Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression? I have been making a duplicate image of 35 MB and reducing the image size to 8"x12" at 72 resolution giving a file size of 1.4 MB. Then I SAVE AS a jpg of medium compression giving a file size of about 111 KB. Overkill?

Go to File>save for web.
I usually make the long side 800 px
At the bottom of the dialog, check "constrain proportions."
At the top, select JPEG in the dropdown for the file format.
All the work is done for you! 72px/in is ok for web work. 240-300px/in is the recommended range for printing.

Need to reduce the report size.

Hi all,
I am using CR2008, i have total 4 images(jpeg) in the header and footer. My problem is size of the rpt file. i am getting 8MB for the blank report itself. so i cant able to export this file properly from my application(.net)into .doc and RTF formats if the report having more than 20 pages. When i remove the whole images from the rpt the size is getting down to around 150KB.
The DPI of the Image is 600 with same height and diffrent width.but the total image size is only 160Kb.i cant able to compromise the resolution of the image. While i am reducing the DPI, the size of the rpt is also decreasing. How can i overcome this problem without reducing the image resolution.
Hope anyone will give the solution for this,
Thanks in Advance,
Salah.

I ran into the same issue and was able solve the problem.
When you insert a jpeg into a report, the jpeg is converted to a bitmap so for example a 200K jpg file can explode to 3 megs.
I was able to solve the problem by opening my bitmap(which was black and white) in photoshop and converting the bitmap to grayscale. Then when saving the converted bitmap I compressed the file.
Then I inserted the image into the report as a OLE object which keep the new size of the file.
Then the other thing you need to do is make sure you have Retain Original Color Depth check on under your report options so that the image will retain it resolution.

Reducing the Image size of a PNG

Hi,
I wonder if anyone could possibly help me this.
I have a program that generates PNG images from an ImageBuffer and conerts this into a ByteStream to be sent via a Servlet:-
ImageIO.write( myBufImage2, "PNG", byteStream2 );
Unfortunately, the image size is uncompressed and consquently quite large to send. Could anyone suggest a way I could compress this image before sending it?
Thanks,
Pete

i'm in a somewhat similar type of situation. first of all, wht platform are you using? UNIX OR PC?
i'trying to resize images to JPEGs. now the class by itself when executed in a standalone mode using -Djava.awt.headless = true, works. it resizes the image to a lower res JPEG. however, when i call the class thru a JSP page to resize the image i get the following:
sun.java2d.SunGraphicsEnvironment.createFontProperties()Lsun/awt/FontProperties;
bear in mind, i am running Xvfb on the server so it should work in headless mode.
any clues??

How can I reduce the image size (how to use "Steps X, Y" and "ROI")?

I upgraded Labview (and NI-DAQ) from 5.X to 7 Express (and NI-DAQ 7). That seems to make PCI_IMAQ1411 to malfunction. I could move ROI and reduce the size by changing "ROI and Step X and Y" of NI_Snap.vi. All of a sudden, IMAQ started not to work properly even under the same code and device. Only difference is LabView and NI-DAQ version. Could you help me working IMAQ1411 under the upgraded LabVIEW and NI-DAQ?
Thanks, Grace

Dear Dcoutri
Thank you for your reply.
(1) The version I have on my computer is IMAQ 2.5.7 which has been installed together with NI-DAQ 7 when I install the LabView Express 7. It is strange that I cannot find the version on "DownLoad site".
(2) You said that Imaq 3.0 does not support Step X, Y function. So you recommend that Imaq 2.5.5 is rather proper one. Then how about Imaq 2.6.1 (2.6). Does that support Step X, Y function?
(3) Using Imaq 3.0, how can one scale down an image?
Thanks, Hyun

How to reduce the image size of a jpeg image?

How do I reduce the size of an iphoto jpeg image?

What do you mean by size? The dimensions? The File size?
There are options depending on exactly what you want to do and why you want to do it.
In general: these are options in the File -> Export dialogue. The Jpeg Quality setting refers to file size, the Size option refers to dimensions.

[Help] Export: the image size

dear all,
I am trying to export the image from AI. I set the document size 256*256 px when I create new document.
after I finish my image, i wanna export to the same size, that is 256*256 px.
however, if I use 128dpi "resolution", I will not get 256*256 px.
now does anyone now how I can get the same size of exported image as I set in the begining?
Thank you for your kind help.

File-->Export-->TIFF(save as type) & Use ArtBoards- (All)-->TIFF Options (Color Model(GrayScale), Resolution (Screen), -->OK
If you use high Resolution, your file size will become bigger, for instance, if you set the size 1inch when you create the documents, which 72pixels*72pixels you work arear. later if you use "300dpi", you will get the 300pixel*300pixel output images, if use " 150dpi", u will get the 150*150 pixels images.
my stupid question is because i didn't know the "screen" mean and didn't use it. . but anyway, it's solved with "screen'
P.S :this is the fist post for me here
PP.S: dpi (dot per inch), somehow, means ppi(pixel per inch)

I cannot reduce the images size on my ipad2 has anyone had this problem before ?

I have been unable to reduce all images on my Ipad2 screen. Any suggestions ? I was in an app called Bamboo Paper and the size blew up.Nothing I do works.

Double tap your screen with 3 fingers and the image should go back to normal size. You may also go into your settings and see if zoom is turned on. If it is turn zoom off.

Need help setting the exact size of my JSlider

Hello everyone. I'm trying to build a small program to help people learn a about RGB colour values, and at the same time teach myself a bit more about Java. Things have been going fine so far until I came to setting my JSlider's size. The intention is to have three JSliders with a JPanel next to each. The I need the track of the slider to be exactly 256 pixels tall (one pixel per gradient value painted into the adjacent JPanel) plus whatever extra padding and spacing the Look And Feel dictates.
I've got the height set to 256 pixels in the following code, but it makes the JSlider as a whole 256 pixels tall and so squishes the track. I've set the minor tick spacing to 2 so that if the track was actually 256 pixels tall, the ticks would alternate over each screen pixel. If you compile and run the code, you will notice that a few ticks appear next to each other without a one-pixel gap between them. I've also verified it by taking a screen capture, pasting it into the GIMP and then using the measure tool to check the size.
I've tried searching through the API documentation to find ways of doing it, or to see if some ideas I've had so far were possible, but so far, I've not found anything particulairly satisfactory. I even tried to see if I could set the JSlider size to current JSlider size minus the track size, plus 256, but I couldn't find a way of getting the current size of the track.
Can anyone help me out here? I'm rather stuck.

Here's the code with all but the JSliders stripped out. Sorry about having to put it in a seperate post; the forum wouldn't allow it.

How to reduce the image size of a mv2

Hi there,
I am creating a DVD (DVD Studio Pro 3) containing mv2 of quicktime files. The screen size of these files vary according to the quicktime. I would like to give them all the same screen size so it looks even.
At the moment some mv2 are full size screen while others are half the size.
When I play the DVD on a TV, some have really bad resolution. Hence my question.
I have exported the quicktime files with a two pass VBR encoding as well as a one pass VBR. But it makes no difference.
Thanks,
V.
PS: I have final cut pro in case I should use that program to make any changes.

It's the source files that determine the eventual size of the encoded assets.
They need to be resized to 720x480 in your NLE before they are encoded. If they start smaller than this, you'll get a quality hit.
